One of your number has happened on an adventurer's diary which outlines their exploits in and around Restwell Keep, located on the borderlands of civilization. Now, forty years since that diary was written, the Keep has declined into a sleepy outpost settlement. The trained warriors once stationed here and the experienced adventurers who once flocked to the spot are long gone. But evil once again stirs in the fabled Caves of Chaos. Humanoids, undead, and evil minions of a dark goddess plot to destroy their enemies. Only novice adventurers who have come to try their hand at dungeon delving in this traditional training spot stand in their way. Light your torches, assemble your marching order, draw your weapons, and sharpen your wits. It's time for a new generation of heroes to take on the challenge.

Please make a first level character using a combination of the Player's Handbook, Xanathar’s Guide to Everything, and Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything. Stats should be chosen using the point-buy system or the standard array.

Take a quick look at the Design Assumptions for the world of Kyor, particularly if your character is a half-orc or you want a character with a lifespan longer than that of a regular mortal human.

Please consider using the heritages, religions, and languages of Kyor in character development.

We will be using a few house rules as well, including a modified flanking mechanic and changes to counterspell.

Alternately, please feel free to choose from this selection of pre-generated first-level characters.

Here is a list of all the players and choices made so far. Please send me any updates so that I can share them with the rest of the players here. Thanks!

For more details about getting started, check out the house rules for this adventure and this section on character creation. While we will start at first level, I hope to advance to second level after the second session on August 12th to finish the arc.

If you wish, you may roll for your starting cash or just take the average.
